   Just a note to let everyone out there in DS land about my experience with DS.  Ordered my computer on 1/4/08.  Went to stage 1 within a day (under old system), but stayed there for a while due to backorder of 780i board...no big deal.  Received the beast on 2/7/08!!!

Shipping box was in great shape...no gashes or crushed corners.  Opened her up and saw one small scratch on the top...again no biggie.  Other than that...what a beut

Fired her up and no video...OH NOOOOOO!! Looked closer and saw that the one video card was cockeyed.  Had to cut the tie downs to reseed...then saw that the metal tabs were bent (chalk another one up to UPS).  Rebent the tabs...put her back together...fired her up and HOLY COW!!  What a beast!  I have liquid chilling and they were able to oc my q6600 to 3.6!!

I have not put her to the test yet, but what I have seen thus far is impressive...These guys know how to build a computer (I have built about 10 myself). 

Great communications and the support is top notch!  

Thanks to Alex, Josh, Dave and the gang for keeping me in the loop during the wait and letting me know what was going on. 

So for all of you out there that are still waiting...it's worth it!!

Thanks again DS Team!!
